Hi all! I'm starting back into my film reactions with the one and only "The Day The Earth Stood Still" (1951), so thank you for requesting this wonderful classic!

I thoroughly enjoyed it, not realising just how brilliant the integration of the effects would be. The story felt like something of a mix between a Twilight Zone episode and a classic sci-fi film, so now I can see why people class it as a top classic sci-fi of the time!

Also great to have recognised Sam Jaffe as the Professor. I knew he looked familiar!

Let me know your thoughts on this one and whether it's a film you remember fondly.

It's great that I actually made mention (I think in my thoughts at the end that aren't edited into this) that this reminds me of when I used to go to my Grandad's and watch Sci-Fi films with him sometimes on a Sunday afternoon... and it's Sunday afternoon when I posted it!

Thank you everyone! I hope you have a lovely day

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I know the feeling of it being like a Twilight Zone episode 😊 it helps massively that Bernard Herrmann was the same composer for TZ. He has scored so many classic movies

Cliff Adams

As great as this film is, when I first saw it and noticed it was based on a story by Harry Bates, I sought out the original story. It turns out the story is and was considered a science fiction masterpiece. "Farewell to the Master" is available (free) on line in a pdf form at http://www.digital-eel.com/blog/library/Farewell_to_the_Master.pdf. Gort was originally Gnut. The point of view is different. And the ending is barely hinted at in the film, and is more astounding than I could have expected. Gnut speaks and says a line which is terrifying, given all which has come before. (Don't just read the ending... get the entire tale before you learn the truth.) Wonderful film, and one of the best early 1950's science fiction efforts.

Scott Howard

This is a favorite 50s scifi of mine. It has that really campy SciFi feeling from the 50s. The one story I know from the making is that Patricia Neal Kept giggling throughout, because she found the whole thing kind of silly. So when Michel Renee would say line he would ask her first if she is going to start giggling.

It's interesting that you were laughing at the skidding tanks at the beginning. That was a real concern for the Makers when they showed it to a test audience who laughed at the tanks skidding also. They were worried they would see the film as a comedy. Also, as to the three word phrase I think it's 'Clato verada nikto' something like that. See a film called Army of Darkness which pays homage to this film by using that phrase to hilarious effect

Robert Williams

Robert Wise work with Orson Welles in “Citizen Kane” served him well in his later films such as this one especially in lighting.
